They probably raised it by beating up and stealing from old ladies who would have protected themselves had they been allowed to carry fully automatic AR-15s with extended mag clips, armor piercing bullets, and ACOG scopes

ajgeek:WoW? That's a soccer mom game now. Still, 2.3m for a bunch of digital kittens is quite a haul.

Indeed. WoW is more of a social network grafted into a 3D world, where players can chat while playing "Plants vs. Zombies", "Farmville" and "Pokemon", than it is anything resembling a 'violent video game' anymore. It is built to entertain children and parents without being offensive.

"There is no virtue in compulsory government charity, and there is no virtue in advocating it. A politician who portrays himself as caring and sensitive because he wants to expand the government's charitable programs is merely saying that he is willing to do good with other people's money. Well, who isn't? And a voter who takes pride in supporting such programs is telling us that he will do good with his own money - if a gun is held to his head."

hasty ambush:GreenAdder: But those guys in Congress say helping Sandy victims is un-American.

Because rebuilding one of the largest commercial and cultural hubs of not only the country but the world is charity and not within the best interest of the nation.

Really? You have never heard of the extended mag clips? It is an excessory that you attach to your gun. It is basically a long harness with binder clips on it. It is used to attach different magazines, such as National Geographic, Vouge, Sports Illustrated, etc. to your firearm. It is for those shooters who visit busy gun ranges and often have to wait their turn before shooting. This allows them to easily and conveniently carry reading material with them. You really should try to keep up with the latest accessories.

Alphax:$10 of that is mine, though I'm not big on the pet battles stuff. Got enough other stuff to do.

Ive been taking my time this expac, finally almost done w/ all the rep uh... ive played since BC, i cant really call them grinds anymore, just got operation shieldwall left. Was off yesterday, decided to start running heroics finally and do some pet battles in between since i have a pretty substantial collection... i got sucked in bad, 12 farking hours on and off, think i ran 2 dungeons, but i now have 6 level 13 pets. I cant remember the last time i got sucked in like that.

fark my cricket though, squishy bastard seems to die after 2 hits but when he doesnt he crits and kills any rare pet im trying to capture...

EkimProx:I've seen a lot of gaming for charity events, but never anywhere close to 2.3 million raised.

Cyno01:Alphax: $10 of that is mine, though I'm not big on the pet battles stuff. Got enough other stuff to do.

Childs Play has done more than that the last three years IIRC.

I let my 66 year old father play on my account, and he's doing most of the pet battles. Me, I've got 27 characters, not counting his 3, so I have a few to 90, but I haven't finished the Dread Wastes yet.

Then define it as that not some act of compassion for those invovled and proclaim how anybody against it lacks that same compassion. It is not compassion if you are using other people's money. Let us also make sure that the moeny spent goes for thso things in the nation's interest and not rebuilding somebody's vacation beach house.

"I cannot undertake to lay my finger on that article of the Constitution, which granted a right to Congress of expending, on objects of benevolence, the money of their constituents." James Madison 1792

"Congress has not unlimited powers to provide for the general welfare, but only those specifically enumerated." - Thomas Jefferson, 1798

"I will not go into an argument to prove that Congress has no power to appropriate this money as an act of charity. Every member upon this floor knows it. We have the right, as individuals, to give away as much of our own money as we please in charity; but as members of Congress we have no right to so appropriate a dollar of the public money."Congressman Davy Crockett, the poorest man in Congress

And an idiot who thinks that society operates by guns and not mutual agreement is telling us the only way he can be counted on to do the right thing is with a gun held to his head.

So the video game industry gets gamers to buy more video games for kids in hospitals? How self-serving of them.

No, some webcomic artists get gamers to give money, so they can buy entertainment (often video games and systems, but not always) for kids stuck in children's hospitals. Yes, the video game industry takes part in this, but it is mostly fueled by gamers and fans of Penny Arcade.

The next time Texas is on fire or new Orleans is under water they can STFU about getting aid. Agreed?
